There are so many miner charts right now that show volume distribution from mid-June to now. This divergence is more pronounced than I possibly have ever seen and I don’t think it should be ignored. Plus the bearish wedge fit the volume pattern well. I sold my position too soon but still bagged a quick 50% profit…and from what I recall some of the biggest bulls here were selling some of their MUX positions when I was buying those shares.

Incidentally, I’m no EW person in the least but at first blush it seems like so many charts like this one (and even the GDX) show a clear 5 wave up structure and are now completing what appears to be an ending diagonal. I’m sure some of EW pros can explain why I’m totally wrong and have no clue how to properly count (which may totally be true!), but I thought I’d throw it out there anyway. Make no mistake, I don’t attempt to use EW in the least but I’m just making a casual observation.
